We are deeply honoured to share that Zi Animal Farm has been nominated in three categories - Best Production, Best Actor, and Best Actress - at this year's NAMA Awards ceremony.

From the bottom of our hearts, we extend our warmest appreciation to our incredible audiences who stood by this production from the first show to the final curtain call. You filled the theatre, you laughed, you reflected, and you carried the story with us. Your love and support are the very pillars of this milestone!

We are profoundly grateful to our amazing director, Bongani Bennedict Masango who traveled from South Africa and dedicated his time, passion, and creative brilliance to bringing this project to life. Zi Animal Farm is a beautiful testament to the power of collaboration - a meeting of creative minds with a shared artistic vision.

To the actors, technical team, and the entire Savanna Trust Family - your enduring commitment to excellence and producing high-quality, professional theatre continues to raise the bar and inspires us all.

This nomination belongs to us all!

Capturing the breathtaking beauty of Zimbabwe’s landscape and bringing it to television!

Our team is currently in Binga - a place where nature, culture and creativity meet. Surrounded by the majestic shores of Lake Kariba and the sweeping, sun-kissed plains, the production team is locking down locations, constructing sets and holding auditions for the upcoming co-production television series between ZBC and Savanna Trust.

The scenery offers the rich cultural heritage of the Batonga people and gives a powerful canvas for storytelling. This fusion, promises to shape one of Zimbabwe’s finest television productions - a celebration of place, people and the limitless power of local stories brought to life on screen.

After a quiet January, February has started on a high note

Savanna Trust is proud to announce a new partnership with the Zimbabwe Broadcasting Corporation (ZBC) on an exciting national television co-production. This project brings together some of the country’s most creative practitioners from both the theatre and film industries, united by a shared vision of storytelling for impact.

This marks an exciting start to the year as we expand our reach and continue using the arts to spark dialogue, reflection, and social change.

Watch this space - the best is yet to come.

As we continue commemorating the 16 Days of Activism Against Gender-Based Violence, we have successfully delivered five powerful Forum Theatre performances in Chitungwiza, Mbare and Rugare. Each performance has opened space for honest conversations, deep reflection, and community-driven solutions on ending Intimate Partner Violence (IPV).

Hundreds of residents have been engaged through interactive storytelling and increased their awareness of signs of IPV and available support services. With four more performances left, our commitment remains strong. We continue to stand with communities, amplifying voices, challenging harmful beliefs, and inspiring collective action.

✊🏽 Together, we are showing that Love Shouldn’t Hurt- and change is possible when communities rise together.
